Description from the author on Modrinth

See Sign From Far! (Fabric 1.21.11-26.4)


Features

Long range sign text:

  • Sign writing stays readable up to 128 blocks away instead of disappearing at 16 to 64 blocks.

Toggle key:

  • (default key: ,, rebindable) to switch it on or off instantly.

Requirements

  1. Fabric API
  2. (Optional) Better Block Entities, supported automatically

Installation

  • Install Fabric Loader and Fabric API for Minecraft 1.21.11 or 26.1 to 26.3.
  • Download the file that matches your Minecraft version.
  • Put the JAR into your mods/ folder.

Usage

Signs are readable from far away as soon as you join a world.
Press comma to turn it off and go back to the normal range. Press it again to turn it back on.
To change the range, edit viewDistance in config/seesignsfromfar.json (16 to 512 blocks), then restart the game.

_Client side only: works on any server, nothing needed on the server.
Only you see the difference. Other players are not affected.
Works with Better Block Entities, which normally hides sign writing at 16 blocks._
